In anticipation of a great conference to end the week, there will not be a Friends of Transit Tuesday event on March 18.  BUT, the following week (on March 25) we will resume Friends of Transit Tuesdays and have some exciting prizes to give away. In addition, Friends of Transit is joining METRO for another fun-filled Rock n’ Rail event on March 27 (details below). We hope you will mark your calendars to join us for both events!
